The state-run veterans home in Chippewa Falls runs 72 certified beds and staffs at 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, a touch above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday.

Ten deficiencies show on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was June 2025. All three CMS star ratings land at four or five. Government ownership here looks like steady staffing rather than a warning sign.

St. John's Health Sage Living runs 60 beds under hospital-district ownership, which tends to mean steadier budgets than a for-profit chain can offer. Its nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip about 14% below its own weekday coverage, a gap worth asking about if your family member needs more hands-on help on Saturdays and Sundays.

Tahoe Forest Hospital's skilled nursing unit runs on a nonprofit model with 37 certified beds, and the numbers suggest it's doing right by its residents. Nurse staffing sits at 4.77 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only slightly from weekday levels, which matters because that's where many homes cut corners. Staff turnover is 22%, less than half the national rate, so you're seeing familiar faces rather than a revolving door. The home has 8 deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and its most recent inspection was in February 2026. For a small rural unit, this is a steady operation.

Lincoln Glen runs on unusually stable staffing for a nursing home: 4.76 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and turnover of 22.6% against a national rate near 46%. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekdays, which is worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The church-affiliated nonprofit's inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in March 2025.

El Encanto runs on 5.16 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 23.4% sits well under the 45.8% typical elsewhere, that combination is unusual and it matters, because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on Sundays. The record shows 37 deficiencies with none at the harm level, though four are abuse-related, which is worth a direct question. State inspectors were last in on June 13, 2025, so the picture is fairly current. As a nonprofit, it isn't answering to shareholders.

Staffing at this La Mesa nonprofit runs 6.71 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 74% above the national average of 3.86, and the 15.2% annual turnover is far below the 45.8% national figure, so the same caregivers tend to stay. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekdays, worth asking about. The 14 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the last inspection was June 2025. With 30 certified beds, it's small enough that a hospital-based operation can keep close tabs on residents.

Nurse staffing sits at 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and annual turnover of 27.5% is well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents.

The inspection record is recent, January 2026, with a 5/5 health inspection rating and only 5 deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level.

The state-run veterans home in Spring City runs 238 certified beds and staffs nurses at 5.46 hours per resident day, roughly 41% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 16% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 28.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure.

The most recent inspection was May 9, 2025. Strong staffing and quality scores, weaker inspection history, that's the tradeoff to weigh if you're considering this home.

Sitter and Barfoot in Richmond is state-run and staffs heavily: 4.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27 percent above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing rating to match. Turnover sits at 24.4 percent, well under the national 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The caution is in the inspection record, 31 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with a June 2025 inspection and a middling 3/5 health inspection rating. Strong daily coverage and stable staff, but a compliance history worth asking about directly.

Strong staffing and quality scores, but a recent survey that found real problems.
